Railroad Meeting at Charlotte.

The following invitation has been received in
this town. 1t will be remembered that last year
q committee of our best citizens attended meet
at Roanoke, Va, to represent the feeling and
interest Of the people of this county in rail-
road connection between here and Roanoke.
1t was then thought that the project had but
little foundation upon which TO build q hope
that the road would be built, but the people Of
Charlotte wero not to be silenced in matter
that paomised so much for their city, and now
that there is n possib ility of having branch of
the Three C's road running TO them, they have
renewed their efforts for the Roanoak connec-
tion, and invite Union TO send representatives
to consult with them about it.
CHARLOTTE, N. c., July %, 1887.
DEAR SIR:-lour community is respectfully
invited to send delegates to meeting to be
held here on Thursday, August 1lth, in the
interest Of railroad from Roanoke, w., via
Winston, Mocksville and Charlotte, N c.,
Yorkvillc, Union and other points in South
Carolina to Augusta Ga. We have been prom
ised the presence ut this meeting of repre-
sentative Of the Roanoke and Southern Railroad
and possibly another line may be represented.
We believe that this line is feasible, and if
the proper effort is made, that the line as in
dicated will be adopted by the company.
1t is needless for us to attempt to point out
the advantages of such line to your section.
We believe it will open up competition that
cannot be done by any other line now prof
Hoping to see representative from your
locality at this meeting, we are,
Yours very truly,

THE RA1Ns--DAMAGE TO CROPS.


that section has been seriously damaged, Mr..
j. G. Farrar has lost his whole corn crop, and
W. A. Morehead and f. c. Whitlock together
have lost 1000 bushels of corn
The Forest, at last accounts had not got far
out of its banks, and but little damage has
been done on that stream, The Rice's bridge
was washed away. II was only temporary
bridge.
Tiger and Enoree Rivers were very high and
it is supposed great damage has been done to
corn on those streams.
The Mail Rider reported on Wednesday that
the new Gists bridge on Tiger, only completed
few weeks ngo, had been washed away; but
the report has since been contradicted. which
we hope is correct.
We have heard nothing from Pacolet or
Thickety, except that the lands along those
streams were flooded, but not deep, and It was
thought but little damage had been done TO
corn there. God grant that It is so, for last
year the people in that part of our county lost
almost all their corn from freshets
Broad river has been booming since Tuesday.
On Wednesday night one span of the trestle ap-
proach to the Braod river bridge at Shelton was
washed away, and the mails and passengers
bsve to BIS transferred as trains cannot psss
over.
The news received from the county after the
above was 10 type, is very sad. aud we fear the
destruction of corn has been much greater than
at first reported.

A South America diplomatist said the
other day: 1T may be interesting to
those who are discussing the subject Of
street cleaning In New York to know that
in several of the South American coun-
tries, notably Chilli and the Argentine
republic, women are employed to sweep
the streets. This plan was first adopted
by the government Of Chilli when most all
the men in the republic were engaged
IN the subjugation of Peru, but it proved
80 successful that it was not only con-
tinucd, but was adopted IN the adjoining
republic. Contracts are let to women
or to men, as the case may be, for keeping
portion Of the city clean, and every
morning, ct about 3 o'clock, gangs Of
women 60 out with their brooms and
sweep the dirt into little piles, when it
is gathered up by men with carts, who
follow them. The contracts are small
and the territory to be swept by each
contractor does not amount to more than
mile Of our pavement. The streets are
paved with Belgian block like Fifth
avenue, and are always as clean in the
morning as dairy floor f'-Washington

Il0MLM
Down Of Brilliant Brain.
While scientific men have been register
ing the perturbation Of the earth, literary
re0ple have been interested IN the analy-
Sis Of the wreck Of q brain, that OF the
talented and SO long laborious Paul Feval,
who died the other day In the hospital Of
lie Brethren Of Saint Jean de Dieu, where
80 many other noble spirits have gor.c to
lay their 1eshy garments down. One
writer appears even TO have taken mel
anchOly pleasure in analyzing the last
dread experiments to which "a Feval, at
the bidding Of his physician, had subjected
himself III the hope Of recovering the writ
ing and thinking power which was COM
Dletely fading away from him. Poor
Paul Fcvall It seems but yesterday; yet
it is just twenty years since be wrote that
sparkling sentence:
ssThe pulse Of Paris beats 120t0 the min
ute, watch in hand; yet we Parisians live
10 years No.
He lived twice as fast as many Of his
literary contemporaries, and ten times as
fast as the old man who lived under q
tree near Verona; but.his brain, like that
Of SO many other Parisians, could not
stand the strain which It at one period
liked and reveled In First came the
splendid, sparkling series Of works, novels,
essays and polemical afticlcs. Then came
the disgust with the world, the retirement
into deep seclusion. There was a time
when the author found consolation In the
practices Of q religious order; and by and
by the complete breakdown arrived.
Nothing can he more melancholy to any
ono familiar with the history Of literary
careers than tho perusal of the last pages
which Nj. Fevnl wrote when trying to
spur on his wornout imagination. The
pen literally fell from his fingers, and he
would record this fact, sometimes point
ing out To his doctor the record Of such q
sgtl md significant action as the only
achievement of the day.
"a little while before his death the emf
ncnt romancer managed to pen these pa
t.,etic lines:
But where has my mind gone? Are

man. Gen. Armstrong first spoke, tel
hing them that he had z sent BY the
Great Father to settle the trouble with
the Crows, but that they had been bad,
aud that they mnst give up these had
men 60 the soldiers and ss they had been
bad bad tnrued the matter over entirely
to Gen, Ruger, who would deal With
them as he saw fit, Pretty Eagle said:
We will give up Sword Bearer bnt We
cannot give MP the others that are want
ed Gen Rugsf then said: al van all
of the seven that fred into the agency
building, and will give them one houg
and one-half to come in:" He then
told "Crszy Head" that he must bring
his SOD, who was one of them. "Urszy
Head" replied that they would go back
60 the camp and talk to Sword Bearer"
Gen. Ruger said: tephat is all | have
to say" Ames Campbell then returned
to the Indian camp with the Indians,
bat returned shortly saying that u
cil was being held. The troops were
held in readiness, and the Indians, pa
tiently watched by the command until
the time wal up. The Indians in the
meantime had formed into q long line,
and the medicine man could be see
riding up and down haranging them.
A few scattering shots were then fired
into the air. The time being up Gen.
Ringer sent troops e end X down the
valley on the left flank OF the Indians,
where they were met by about
half of the Indians gathered in the
war party which numbered abont $50.
A red hot skirmish then resulted, 10
which Corporal Charles Thompson was
killed, Private Eugene Malloy slightly
wounded, and Private CLARK throwp
from his horse and his shoulder disloca-
ted. These were all in troop x, oom-
manded by Lieut.. Edwards, Second
Lieut.. Byram. A running fight ensued,
the Indians retreating, some to the
peaceful gathering, neat the agency, aud
others crossing the river and taking to
the hills. Sword Bearer made 8 final
stand at the crossing OF the Little aorn,
about one mile below the agency, in
which he and probably three of his fol-
lowers were killed. This was the result
of the sklrmish fire of G troop, first
cavalry, commanded by Capt T. Kup-
ham and Lieut.. j. b. Aleshire.. Sword
Bearers body was brought into camp,
but the other indians are only reported
dead. Most of the Indians clrcled about
and returned to the agency mixing with
the other camps. There are nov sup
posed to be from twenty to fifty loose in
the hills. Several tfoops OF cavalry are
now out close on their heels end they
will probably o be captured. There
was about two hours of actual lighting.
OFFICIALLY CONFIRMED.
